The first thing that comes to mind when watching this rollercoaster grind from John Clemmons is this: Why the hell is that rail even there? It had to be put there for this exact reason!
Who knows...but all that matters is John stepped to this thing and had himself a wild ride. Admit it—there's something extremely satisfying about watching this go down.

Locked and loaded, grinding this thing is no small feat. But I'm left wondering what else has been, or could be, done on this thing? Someone commented, "Be honest did you try crooked grind?" and John replied, "Okay you caught me." Is this just a funny, sarcastic exchange? A crook makes sense and I could see John pulling it off?
Only time will tell, I suppose.
Regardless, we can all only imagine how nice it must have felt to grind this beast. He makes it look fun, but as he hangs on for dear life around those curves, you know this thing came with a challenge.
But again...why does this rail exist and what is its use?
I guess as long as people like Clemmons are skating it and getting rad, that's all that matters. Fine with me!
